[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1107675, member: 12995"] Thanks for the good debate Jeff. Your insight is always knowledgeable, and for that I have lots of respect for you and your opinions. I can certainly understand where the 7mm vs .338 would be a noticeable difference, that's 120gr of bullet weight and .054" larger diameter bullet impacting the vitals. That I can believe would be a significant difference in real-world testing. As a life-long .30 and 7mm fan, and taking many deer with both calibers, I just have a hard time wrapping my head around (not contradicting what you're saying, just going through my brainstorming outloud) that 35gr of bullet weight, and .024" larger diameter having that significant of an effect on terminal performance. I do like a good debate/conversation instead of someone just saying, "this is better than that, so you need this..." and no actual basis other than personal bias or opinion. I'll be the first to tell you that I have a personal bias towards 7mm chamberings, even though I have quite a few .30 caliber rifles and many other random caliber rifles, too. I still think that once the new 7mm 195 comes out, it will be a total game-changer. :D [/QUOTE]
